ENESTop = A clinical research study evaluating the possibility to stop the drug nilotinib in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients who have very small amount of leukemia cells remaining after nilotinib treatment

What is the purpose of the study

To stop nilotinib treatment in CML-CP patients (who started treatment with ≥ 4 weeks of imatinib, then switched to nilotinib for a minimum of 2 years (with minimum combined duration on imatinib and nilotinib ≥ 3 years), and achieved MR4.5 on nilotinib) who maintained MR4.5 during the 1 year nilotinib treatment on study.

Key inclusion criteria

Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) chronic phase patients.
Potential participants should have been diagnosed with CML and should have received first-line treatment with imatinib, then switched to nilotinib for at least 2 years prior to study entry with the combined time on imatinib and nilotinib being at least 3 years. Patients must not have documented MR4.5 at the time of switch to nilotinib, and should have achieved MR4.5 on nilotinib.
